Outlook SMTP connector to SBS 2003

My client is running SBS 2003 with exchange SP2. When I setup a POP interface
with outlook 2007 on Vista everything works OK. When I setup a POP interface
with outlook 2003 on XP I can't send mail to an address outside the domain.
The test account setting passes. An email from [email protected] to [email protected]
works but send to [email protected] fails with 550 5.7.1 Unable to relay for. I have
been using the same exchange user for testing so it's not a user
configuration problem.

What authentication did you set on the POP3 account?

just the default user and password. I use the same setting for outlook 2003
and 2007. 2007 works no problem 2003 fails. I have Office 2003 SP 3 installed
on the XP system and all the latest updates for the OS also.

Are you authenticating the outgoing server correctly?

Authentication to the outside server is OK because it works with outlook
2007. The environment is:
SBS 2003 exchange all updates applied
same account setup pop access on outlook 2003 and outlook 2007
outlook 2007 on vista business outlook 2003 on xp pro
email [email protected] to [email protected] both active directory users works OK for both
email [email protected] to [email protected] works on 2007 fails on 2003 with 550 5.7.1
Unable to relay

I have tried this with 2 different xp systems so it's not xp that's the
issue. When I do searches on this error I find lots people have posted this
problem on various boards but I have not seen a solution.
